i am still trying to get the hang of guideml, but it's much better than plain text!
it is fun, though, i was wondering, how did you get the spot on your page to post hi's to you?
thanks,

jenn

Hi, just passing, saw the light on, thought I'd stick my nose in

The code you'll need is here http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A388974

You'll need to change the VALUEs of forum, threadid & inreplyto

The easiest way to do this is to create the forum you want to post to and then start to post a reply to it. When you have the "post to a conversation" screen up do a view source in your browser. Then search for AddThread - the numbers you'll need are just below it.

As an example the numbers for this forum are




hope it helps

thanks again!

Where is the coding for it - I guess it just uses a button instead of a text area. In which case I just have to copy the html - -Yes?
veg

I guessed right

You will find some strange postings on your voting forums as I tested it from
http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A528275

Thanks again
veg

I noticed the odd posts & guessed what was happening

Don't forget you can always get the h2g2 code for a page like http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A528275 by using http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/test528275

& for a userpage eg http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/U25551 with http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/testuserpage25551

glad you like it & that it'll come in handy

It certainly will come in handy and I have already alerted shazz to its existance, and she has an idea for it already.

Its Simple - I dont know why I didn't think of it. It takes a geat mind to think of something simple.
